‘Too many tequilas!’
Lady Gaga has been one of the most talked-about women in the world this year, winning big at award season for her leading role and songwriting in A Star Is Born.
With just over a week until the Academy Awards 2019, people are wondering whether Gaga will add a Leading Actress Oscar to her collection, but it was’t award season that made the singer a talking point this week. Instead, it was the 32-year-old’s tattoos, with Gaga adding two to her collection.
While Gaga’s first ink was a ‘La Vie en Rose’ tribute down her spinal cord, it was her second tattoo that made the most noise.
The tribute was a nod to her own name - a musical staff featuring the notes, G A G A.
But rather than the sweet musical symbolism, the tattoo became a talking point for a hilarious error, with fans noticing that the staff only had four lines instead of five.
Gaga was quick to fix the mistake, adding a fifth staff and posting, ‘Sorry music!’

Taking to Instagram, the singer posted a photo of the correction along with the caption: 'Music crisis averted. Too many tequilas forgot the fifth staff line poor thing. Here’s the real deal.’
She continued: ‘As a music theory student I’m appalled, as someone having fun with their friends I’m relieved.’
Like we needed another reason to love Lady Gaga!
